Is Inflammatory Arthritis RA?
Stupid question, been diagnosed for six years since 20 but it’s always been written as: Seronegative inflammatory arthritis. It was once written as RA and once as Oligoarthritis. Is there any difference. I am negative rheumatoid factor, anti-CCP and HLA B27. Three years ago my DSA28 score equates to

Hubby’s legs were terribly swollen when he was admitted but are now almost back to normal and he is really

Psoriatic Arthritis?
I have RA currently tolerable, OA, PN, and a few lesser problems. A few weeks ago I had severe electrical-like shocking pains in my back vertebrae for two days. It went away but then my legs started breaking out in itchy red bumps and my full knee replacement knee is very painful. Could this be psoriatic

Will I see specialist forever?
Hi everyone, I started seeing my liver specialist a long time ago now. It must be 8 years. They found out I had positive AMA and also ANA when investigating my arthritis. I still am labelled as arthritis (query rheumatoid) and mild chronic liver condition but he hasn’t yet called it PBC, two vague labels

Anyone else experiencing RA alongside osteoarthritis and being peri menopausal? Feeling exhausted…
Well the good news is current treatment plan of mtx and etanercept is keeping my RA controlled. But X-rays and US of feet and hands show that the pretty constant pain is osteoarthritis, and it’s in all fingers and toes. Alongside fully blown peri menopausal I’m feeling pretty exhausted. It’s likely

Rheumatoid Arthritis
Hi my son has been diagnosed at age 26, he’s in the process of blood tests and waiting for his first treatment, I’m utterly heartbroken seeing him in so much pain every day struggling to do the tasks he took for granted. It’s literally come on within six months. Can anyone give me any glimmers of hope

Update: Fibromilaga
I just saw a rheumatologist. He diagnosed me with Fibromilaga. Said he hasnt ruled out psoriatic arthritis but he thinks its Fibromilaga. Im not sure how i feel about it but at least we are treating something, instead of telling me im fine and go away. Anyone have any advice on how to help myself through

Starting tocilizumab
I had my first shot of TCZ this morning (10 hours ago). 45 minutes later I started to feel lousy, dizzy etc. I'm slowly getting better now. Is this anyone else's experience?Is it likely to pass, and it is something I have to look forward to every week, or does your body adjust to it? Am also on 14mg

Confused flare or not
I posted a few days ago about left shoulder pain and tight area around left neck and scapula. Increased Pred does from 5mg to 10mg and taking 800mg of Advil. Stated to feel easing off the pain so dropped the Advil and now the pain has returned. Totally confused whether to drop back to my normal dose

Does anyone know whether I will experience steroid withdrawal even though I’m on tocilizumab?
I have tapered down (from 40mg) to 5mg pred. I began a course of weekly TCZ injections 8 weeks ago. I need to stop taking the pred. I’m wary as I have experienced steroid withdrawal on a prior occasion. I am debating whether to keep taking it over Christmas or to stop now… and I’m wondering whether:

Life insurance
I’ve been refused serious illness cover by vitality because of my arthritis. Anyone have a positive experience with an insurance company? Or is serious illness cover a waste of money?

New type of rash.
Hi I have Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. I've just recently started getting a new type of rash after giving birth which looks a lot different from my usual Psoriasis, it's on the back of my hands and doesn't itch or anything. Please see photo. Anyone had anything similar?
